Life has dealt a heavy hand to a weak demigod like me.

Although he has always called himself an unbeliever, he still has great respect for the five righteous gods, Charles.

If possible, he hoped that those righteous gods could be consistent in appearance and reality, and be as he knew them to be...

Charles slowly closed his eyes, and then completely disappeared from this world.

At the same time, after he disappeared, the time at the place where he had just been suddenly restored.

The speed at which everything in the world moved forward suddenly accelerated countless times, as if the whole world was pressed the fast-forward button, and then quickly returned to its original state.

In the endless darkness, there is a vast and magnificent scene composed of countless other particles. In this scene, there are several strange and magnificent beauties like nebulae that are constantly dispersing while gathering.

It is extremely quiet here, as if there is no sound, the concept of time, the concept of space, and everything that people know should not exist here.

"Rocks..." A strange voice broke the silence.

Sif called out Ciel's name in a panic.

When her voice fell, she saw 13,820 people named Charles Rocks, and their lives appeared in front of her. Looking at these "Rocks", an idea suddenly emerged in Sif's mind.

This thought told her that if she wanted to, she could easily change everything about these people, whether in the future, past, or present.

She can manipulate their past to make them gods, modify their present to take away all their glory, and even interfere with their future to make them move forward in the direction they want.

but...

These are not important.

For her at this moment, this omnipotent power cannot give her a sense of security. She just wants to find the person she has been thinking about.

"Rocks...Rocks...Charle Rocks..."

Her voice kept echoing in this place, over and over again, as if she was tireless.

"Xi...Fu." Perhaps a long time in the future, or perhaps the next second after she uttered the sound, a dry voice sounded in this space.

"Rocks...is that you?" Sif's voice became a little excited.

"Yes...I..." Charles' voice was a little dry and slow.

At this moment, he seemed to be in a very strange state.

Everything in the world no longer held secrets for him, and he could see countless years into the past at a glance.

The moment he arrived here, he saw a past that he had never experienced.

Thirty-one thousand seven hundred and sixty-six years.

For a full 31,766 years, he could see everything in the world, except for the 3,000 years after he disappeared, or in other words, the time before the disappearance of the Five Gods.

For him, everything in history is no longer a secret, not just the past. Everything that is happening in the world now and all the possible outcomes in the future are constantly emerging in his mind.

At this moment, he was like a child who had obtained a new toy, constantly experiencing this power to find more things that interested him.

Therefore, facing Sif's voice, Charles was unable to respond immediately.

"Where is this place?" Sif asked while looking for Charles.

Although she could hear Ciel's voice, Sif couldn't see him. Or rather, it wasn't just Ciel, Sif couldn't even see herself at this moment.

This feeling was very wonderful, but at the same time it also made her a little scared and afraid.

"Here..." Charles' voice was hesitant.

This place was beyond the limits of his knowledge.

Is this the world beyond? Or is it the world itself? Or somewhere even stranger?

Ciel couldn't tell.

Just when he was unable to answer Sif's question for a long time, and just when Sif wanted to ask if Charles was still there, the surrounding space changed again.

Countless colorful particles began to roll and combine, and then slowly outlined the bodies of Charles and Sif, and finally slowly solidified.

They can still see everything in the world as before, but compared to their previous state of nothingness, they now have their own... "bodies"?

Charles was a little unsure.

"Look at everything in this world... and find the doubts in your heart..."

A voice suddenly appeared in his ears.

"Who are you?" Charles asked almost instinctively, but the voice did not answer his question. Instead, it repeated, "Go and see everything in this world... Go and find the doubts in your heart..."

In Charles' sight, the darkness in the distance seemed to begin to churn, and at the same time, their bodies began to collapse again into countless particles, slowly rushing towards the real world.

Charles felt a little regretful, but he did not resist as before. He obeyed the strange power and slowly disappeared in this strange world.

The same is true for Sif, but compared to Ciel, she disappears a little slower.

After Ciel completely disappeared, her eyes remained in this world.

A pair of noble, lofty and holy eyes.

"Charle Rocks...my...brother?"

Although the mouth disappeared, she, or rather He, still made sounds here.

If Ciel could hear it, he would probably be shocked.

After all, the voice of Diana, the goddess of the night...it was hard for him to forget.

Chapter 335: Harvest, Toys

It was a wonderful experience.

That feeling made Charles a little intoxicated. If possible, he wanted to stay there and continue to gain insight into the truth of the world.

It's a pity that he couldn't maintain that state forever. Without the power of Sif or the Goddess of Night, he wouldn't even be able to enter that state.

Spots of light slowly emerged in Charles' eyes, and the stars and the universe seemed to be pouring out of his eyes. At the same time, his left hand slowly began to change.

Just like when he was about to be carried away by the power of the Goddess of Night and disappeared, Ciel's left hand began to crumble and disintegrate, but he was still unable to do what he did before.

Charles was not discouraged.

Although I have not entered that state again, the insights and things I saw there have been preserved.

He has found the way in, but now he is still missing something.

If he could make up for the missing power of Sequence 2, or in other words, be promoted to Sequence 1, he would be able to reach there easily, and even control it!

Not only everything in the world, but there Charles also saw emptiness, nothingness, and even more things that he could not understand.

Faintly, Charles seemed to understand why the Five Gods were so high and mighty and invincible.

He didn't think for long before he was awakened by Sif's movements.

Looking at Sif who was hugging him tightly like an octopus...or rather, strangling him, Charles felt helpless.

"That place just now... was so dark and scary..." It was a very good experience for Charles. It even allowed him to see the future and know his own future.

But for Sif it was a bad experience.

It was pitch black, filled with things she didn't understand or that made her dizzy and she didn't want to look at them. She couldn't even feel her own body for a while.

That experience could have been as bad as it could have been for her.

"I understand... Don't be afraid, I'm here with you." Charles tried hard to break free from Sif's arms, but he couldn't do it.

Faintly, Charles seemed to see an extra lock on Sif's body. This lock prevented her from modifying time and reversing the past with a thought as before. Except when she was emotionally excited or had firm beliefs, she probably could not use her power flexibly.

But...this restriction seems to be ineffective for him.

Just like now... facing Sif's "hug", unless he launched an attack, Charles couldn't rely on his own strength to struggle free, and he even felt a sense of suffocation for the first time in a long time.

"Who...who is scared!" Charles' calm tone seemed to infect her, and Sif tried to speak toughly as usual.

"The person who said it was dark and scary there is scared now." Charles winked at Sif. For a moment, she was a little overwhelmed by Charles' words.

"Also... could you please not hold me like this?"

"This will affect my reputation. After all, I'm getting married."

"And...you were hugging me so tightly that I couldn't breathe."

Charles' words made Sif feel ashamed and angry, and then Sif used a lot of force to push Charles aside.

"Do you think you have any reputation?"

"The Little Prince of Night in the City of Eternal Night? Or the Alien Killer?" Don't get me wrong, Alien Killer is not a bloody nickname, but a reference to his battle record in the City of Eternal Night.

This describes him as a "killer" with no emotions, even when facing aliens whose physical strength and talents far surpass those of humans, yet he can still "kill them on horseback"...

"That's all in the past... I haven't been there for a long time!" Charles said seriously.

Although he occasionally missed the wild life in the City of Eternal Night, it was just a memory. After confirming his relationship with them, he never stayed there again.

"Should I praise you?" Sif rolled her eyes. "Also, didn't you say I'm your older sister? Would it affect your reputation if a sister hugged her brother?"

"Um...I'm the older brother." Charles said seriously.

Although it was a surprise for Charles whether Sif admitted that he was her brother or younger brother, he still wanted to be her brother if possible.

It's not because of face or anything.

But... Mernadette is the younger sister. If Sif is the older sister, then if other people knew about it, wouldn't they think that the Goddess of Earth is not as good as the Goddess of Night?

So...for the sake of Merna Deschar decided to nail down the identity of his brother.

My faith in the goddess is indeed pure and firm...

Charles silently gave himself a thumbs up, completely forgetting how Melnadette had been bullied by him before.

"Rocks...you are much younger than me. Don't weave some easily exposed lies for the sake of a man's self-esteem." Sif said with a pout.

She actually didn't have a deep obsession with whether she was an older sister or a younger sister. The reason she kept arguing with Charles about this was simply because she felt that this would quickly enhance their relationship.

After all, from friends to family, she felt it would be a bit awkward to meet them in the office every day.

Now there is a point where they can quarrel or argue, which can effectively ease the awkwardness and enhance their relationship.

"I told you before about the age issue, don't make a fuss." Charles sat on the sofa and then picked up the cup on the tea table and started drinking.

"Don't use my cup casually!" Sif sat over and took the cup from Charles' hand while saying dissatisfiedly.

"See, I told you that you don't act like a sister. If you had used my cup, I wouldn't be as angry as I am now." Charles said seriously.

"I'm not angry!" Sif said seriously, with a hint of nervousness in her tone.

"I don't believe it~ Unless you..." Charles' words attracted all of Sif's attention. While she was waiting for Charles to speak, Charles stuffed the small cake next to her into his mouth with lightning speed.

"Are you childish?" Sif looked helplessly at Charles who snatched her cake like a child.

Although there was a hint of complaint in her words, her mood actually became better.

In her mind, this is probably how brothers and sisters get along with each other.

"It's because I've been here for such a long time, and as my sister, you didn't even pour me some water or prepare some cake for me."

"That's because you barged in without knocking!"

"I thought our relationship was such that we didn't have to worry about that kind of thing."

"You're the one getting married. Who just said you didn't want to be misunderstood?"

The two argued back and forth, and finally couldn't help laughing when they looked at each other.

The unfamiliarity and awkwardness that may have existed before have now completely disappeared.

Having a brother like this...seems not bad...

"By the way, did you hear the last voice?" Charles asked casually, relaxing his body and lying on Sif's sofa like a puddle of water.

"sound?"

"What's that sound of going to see the world?" Sif said uncertainly.

Ciel nodded, "Did you see anything after that sound?"

Sif shook her head. "Everything there is special and strange to me, and I have no doubts in my heart, so..."

Charles nodded and didn't mention this matter to her anymore.

He is different from Sif. He has many doubts in his heart, but from there... he seems to have not found a way to resolve all his doubts.
